Reality TV dating—the drama’s fake, but the heartbreak’s real.
Chosen to be the star of Groomsman to Groom, I have thirty women vying for my heart. Losing my wife three years ago shattered me, but I fought hard to rebuild my life for my son—my everything. Now, he’s nudging me to find love again.
I already found someone, though—Brielle Wilson. Brilliant, beautiful, and a total nerd like me. On our midnight beach walk six months ago, we went three rounds over Captain Picard versus Spock, and she knows her stuff—a rare gem. That night, things got heated, fast, and she made me feel again, something I wasn’t sure I was capable of anymore.
But a family emergency pulled her away, and now, I’m playing the dating game in Atlanta’s high-stakes film scene, risking everything—my career, my relationship with my son—to find love on this wild show. Skye, my witty ex-stepmother and the host, guides me through staged drama and genuine feelings. Especially when Brielle shows up as a contestant.
Maybe she felt the connection I did? Maybe the connection I felt is gone?
I vowed to keep an open heart, but secrets won’t stay hidden for long. If someone finds out about our tryst, it could destroy everything—friendships, reputations, and any shot at real love.
*Groomsman to Groom is a witty, heartfelt stand-alone romcom with adult language and steamy, open-door chemistry that will have you rooting for a happily-ever-after.

Eddie is a retired homicide detective, and Matthew is a successful investment banker. Bobby, who is on disability from his job as a corrections officer at a juvenile detention center, has a secret: the darkness that found him under the ice when he was a kid has made him do terrible things.
Following a reunion at Ray’s house, Matthew is found murdered in his car beside the old pond. The killer includes a chilling message that only the three remaining friends would recognize. Could one of their own be a murderer?
